2 WEEKS LATER
Just breathe.
I walk into the clean halls of Ark Academy searching for someone I can be friends with. Unfortunately, it doesn't work that easy.
So many new people. So many fresh eyes.
"Move out of the way!" Someone shoves me into a locker.
"Hey, watch it!" I fire back. I don't just let someone shove me into a locker and let them get away with it. It pissed me off.
He turns around and just as he's about to shove me again someone stops him. "Murphy, back off!"
"Shut up, Octavia. She has what's coming to her." Murphy resumes his plan to shove me.
"You heard what my sister said to you," says a boy with brown hair and brown eyes. "Leave the girl alone."
"Sure thing, whatever." Murphy instantly backs off with a sudden worry in his eyes and then he leaves.
"Don't worry, he's just a dick." Octavia says laughing.
"I can see that," I sigh in relief. "Thanks for helping me," I say to Octavia and then glance at Bellamy. "You too."
"I didn't do it for you, I did it for my sister," he says rolling his eyes and walks away. Making friends is going to suck.
"Sorry about that. My brother is a dick, too. Most of the guys in this school are. Except my boyfriend, of course," Octavia laughs. "So what's your name?"
"I'm Clarke Griffin." I say relieved to have made a friend.
"Nice to meet you, Clarke. I'm Octavia Blake," she says with a bright smile spread across her face, "I can tell we're going to get a long really well."

"My aunt Sara isn't home so you can come over and help me decorate my new room," I offer to Octavia who immediately agrees. We walk through the halls and she guides me to my locker.
"Locker 319. Here it is," Octavia smiles realizing that her's is only across the hall.
"So I see I have a new locker neighbor," someone says and reaches for my hand. "I'm Finn Collins. And you are beautiful." I immediately blush, having this be the first time in a long time that anyone has flirted with me.
"I go by Clarke." I respond. I've gotta play hard to get, you know?
"I'll just leave you two alone..." Octavia says, but as she's about to leave I stop her.
"No need!" I turn to Finn. "We have to go to Physics, but I'll see you around." I wink and Octavia directs me to our next class.
"The 'wink and leave'. You're a clever one, Griffin." She laughs.
